but also protect them from a major pest, the bruchid beetle (Fragoso 2003). During its reproduction the beetle will lay eggs on the maripa palm fruit, when the larvae emerges it will enter the endocarp and consume the seeds throughout its development, being detrimental to the survivorship of the plant species (Fragoso 2003). The tapirs generally protect the seeds by dispersing them over large ranges that are away from areas in which bruchid beetles are present. However, tapirs have another very…

SUMMARY The efficacy of abamectin , malathion and three plant oils(olive oil, peanut oil and linseed oil) singly and in three mixture ratios (5:95, 10:90 and 15:85) of the oils and pesticides , were biologically evaluated on cowpea beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus ( Fabricius , 1775) infested cowpea seeds.
